Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display device in which the transition of alignment is mostly surely caused and the transition is completed in an extremely short time so that the device has no display defect, a fast response rate and a wide view field and is suitable for the display of animated images. SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display device is an active matrix type one having a liquid crystal cell 124 in which a liquid crystal layer 122 is disposed between an array substrate 106 having pixel electrodes 128 and a counter substrate 105 having a counter electrode 127 and the liquid crystal molecules are aligned to show splay alignment and parallel to each other on the upper and lower interfaces with the pretilt angles of the same absolute value and opposite signs to each other, and display is performed by producing bend alignment. The pixel electrode 128 is formed on a flattening film 100 which covers and flattens a switching device 123 or a wiring electrode.  Thereby, the transition between splay and bend alignment can be surely and easily caused in a short time in the pixels of the liquid crystal cell and an OCB(optically self- compensated birefringence) mode liquid crystal display device of high picture quality without alignment defects can be realized.

Abstract: Installing files on a hard disk drive in a manner that improves program launch time. After a build of a program is completed, the program is launched and the disk activity associated with disk-intensive operations is monitored to determine the order in which file portions are read from a disk during program or command launch. This data is used to create a load sequence list, which indicates the order in which various portions of the files are read during launch. The installation disks include the files and the load sequence list. During the installation process, the installation program reads the data from the load sequence list and writes the file portions so they are stored in the order prescribed by the load sequence list in contiguous clusters on the hard disk drive. The computer can then read launch-related data from the disk in the proper order from contiguous disk clusters, which minimizes or eliminates wasted time that would result from disk accesses if the disk heads had to move between non-contiguous clusters in order to read the launch-related data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to absorbent devices such as sanitary napkins, pantiliners, interlabial devices, and incontinence devices. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention relates to an improved absorbent device that is insertable into the interlabial space of a female wearer for catamenial purposes (including menses and mid-cycle discharges), incontinence protection (including urine), or both. The absorbent interlabial device has at least one body-contacting surface and a backsheet having an integral protrusion formed therein of sufficient dimensions to aid in insertion into the interlabial space. An apparatus for forming the integral protrusion in the backsheet is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a female forming member having an opening therein, and a compression member having an opening therethrough in operative aligned relationship with the opening of the female forming member. A male forming member having a male forming protrusion operatively disposed in aligned relationship with the openings of the female forming member and compression member, and moveable therethrough can be urged through the openings. A method of making an integral protrusion in a backsheet is disclosed. The backsheet is compressed between the female forming member and the compression member. The backsheet has an uncompressed region coincident the aligned openings of the female forming member and the compression member. A male forming protrusion is urged through the aligned openings, thereby contacting and straining the backsheet material coincident said first and second openings to form a strain induced plastically deformed protrusion in the backsheet.

Abstract: The invention relates to, in particular, a geotextile comprising linear running warp threads (1) and linear running weft threads (2) which are essentially orthogonal thereto. Said weft threads are joined to the warp threads (1) by means of fixing threads (3) which are applied by warp knitting and whose meshes wrap around the warp threads (1) along the entire length and around the weft threads (2) in the area of crossings (4). The warp threads (1) and the weft threads (2) are arranged individually or in groups in larger intervals which result in inner widths (5) of the mesh (6). The aim of the invention is to attain an improved joining of warp threads and weft threads without requiring the use of additional fixing threads or stronger fixing threads. To this end, the invention provides that, in the areas in which the weft threads (2) cross the warp threads (1), the lengths of the meshes (7) of the fixing threads (3) are distinctly shorter than the lengths in the areas of the mesh structure which are located therebetween.

Abstract: Mobile radio systems are known in which base stations receive radio signals from a mobile station in parallel over different radio paths and forward the user data contained in the radio signals as data blocks (TB1 to TBn) to a central station. Transmission is in the form of data frames (see Fig. 1b). In the receiver of the central station, erroneous data blocks are replaced with data blocks received correctly over another radio path. An erroneous data block (TB1) is detected by means of an entry in an associated check field (CID1). To speed up the reading of the check fields (CID1 to CIDn) and the access to the data blocks (TB1 to TBn), a newly structured data frame (see F in Fig. 1b) is proposed. The data blocks (TB1 to TBn) are arranged immediately side by side, with each data block containing a number of bits divisible by 8, and all check fields (CID1 to CIDn) are written into a check block (CB) provided for this purpose. This specific byte-oriented structure permits very fast access to individual data blocks. Also disclosed are a novel method of transmitting the data blocks (TB1 to TBn) as well as a mobile radio system, a central station, and a base station for carrying out the method.

Abstract: Production of fuel gases by thermal conversion of a solid charge, in particular by pyrolysis, thus generating solid residues and raw gases. Combustion of the solid residues produces combustion gases and thermal cracking of the raw gases produces fuel gases. All or part of the combustion gases are used to supply thermal energy to the thermal cracking of the raw gases. Part of the combustion gases supply the energy required for thermal conversion of the solid charge before being used in the cracking operation. The combustion gases supply at least one means of heating to the thermal cracking of the raw gases. The combustion gases are mixed with fresh air to obtain the desired temperature for thermal cracking. The temperature and speed of increase of temperature in the means of cracking is controlled by altering the flow and quantity of combustion gases and/or fresh air. The raw gases are heated indirectly or directly during the thermal cracking operation. An Independent claim is included for an installation for carrying out the above process, with means (10) of thermal conversion of the solid charge, means (28) of burning the solid residues and means (12) of thermally cracking the raw gases. The thermal energy from the means of burning is transferred to the means of cracking via a means of transport (38). A link (30) connects the means of thermal conversion to the means of combustion and the means of transport has a bypass (38, 40) to the link which supplies the means (42) of heating the cracker. The means of heating the cracker is also supplied with fresh air through a fresh air feed (48). The means of heating the cracker are indirect or direct, with means (42) of injecting the combustion gases into the cracker.
